About Me

Whether it's a day packed with museum visits or a chill afternoon sipping coffee/tea in a small cafe, I find life most enjoyable when I'm surrounded by friends -- old and new. I'm an extrovert in that other people's energy feeds me and I like a mix of set plans as well as spontaneous adventures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love visiting places, but more than anything else I like meeting people!

Interests

Living a happy, positive life
Eating/Cooking
Learning -- your interests will probably turn into my interests after we meet
Traveling (like everyone else on CS...)

  • cooking
  • coffee
  • running
  • drinking
  • traveling
  • socializing
  • zip-line
  • business
  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

In no particular order:
Movies -- Bride & Prejudice, Inception, Trainwreck, Ted Talks
I will watch anything...

Music -- besides strange screaming/screeching noises, I will listen to anything someone recommends to me. I'm not a super-fan of rap, but I can appreciate the artistry/skill behind any good song

Books
Start With Why --> go watch Simon Sinek's Ted Talk
Historia de una muerte anunciada
To Kill A Mockingbird
Adventures of Jacky Faber (series about a young female pirate)
